010. Prologue of the times

Greenwood Cemetery, New York.

"Almighty God Father, you are the source of life, you have saved us through My Son Jesus, look to Silas Swan and receive him in eternal light......"

A priest in a black robe and a round hat is holding a cross in one hand and a Bible in the other, and is loudly eulogizing the owner of the tomb in front of him.

Hundreds of guests dressed in black trousers sat behind the priest, including many political and business celebrities who often appeared on the news.

In the center of the first row of the crowd phalanx was a handsome young man with black hair and black eyes and a slightly immature face.

After the priest finished mourning, the young people took the initiative to come to the tomb and receive the guests who came to pay their respects one by one.

The funeral lasted all morning, and Ron also had a morning of false grievances with these social elites, and his face was almost stiff with laughter.

Although he does not have the ability to read minds, Ron can also detect the true emotions in these people by observing micro-expressions, heart rate and blood flow rate.

Of the hundreds of guests attending the funeral, the vast majority did not have much grief over Silas's death, and many even gloated.

After all, the unlucky egg who was smashed to death by a coconut is even rarer than the giant panda.

If it weren't for the fear of angering the Zeekr Group, Silas would have had a place in this year's Darwin Prize.

The only people who really grieve Silas's death are the few mistresses that the guy has taken care of, as well as a few people such as his original wife and children.

For these people, Ron has no intention of killing them all.

On the contrary, he promised Silas a week ago that he would give his mistresses $5 million each, so that they would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

He didn't take a penny of Silas's inheritance, and gave it all to the son born to the other party and his ex-wife.

No way, who made him too kind-hearted.

It's definitely not because you can't look down on the other party's inheritance, you choose to spend money to buy a good reputation and create your own superhero character.

After the funeral, Ron went straight back to his villa on Long Island.

You can not go to the banquet, the company can not care, but the sun cannot be less than a moment.

After all.

In this world where great power belongs to itself, strength is the foundation of everything.

Sunset.

A blonde, blue-eyed, coolly dressed Polish beauty paced with small steps and found Ron, who was playing a game on the beach and basking in the sun: "Boss, Mr. Stark's press conference is about to begin." ”

This is the personal secretary he hired two years ago, Lilith.

is responsible for his daily chores, as well as docking with Zeekrypton.

Since he took over as CEO of ZEEKR two days ago, he has also officially begun to participate in the management of ZEEKR.

Staring intently at the screen in front of him, Ron didn't look back and said, "Got it, I'll talk about it when I'm done with this." ”

Five minutes later, Ron finally pressed the save button on the boss of this level.

"By the way, which station will the press conference be broadcast live on?"

"Fox, CNN, CBS are all on the air."

Putting down the gamepad, Ron picked up the remote control and switched to the famous 'Fiknius' channel, CNN (CNN).

In the center of the screen, a mustache in a delicate suit with a large back comb is talking.

“…… I'm obviously not a superhero fodder, I have a bunch of character flaws, I've made so many mistakes in public, and the truth is ......"

Staring at the pre-arranged lines on the small note, after a few seconds of silence, Tony Stark finally said the classic line that countless Marvel fans would never forget: "I am Iron Man!" ”

This explosive news instantly detonated the audience.

Even Ron, who was on the other side of the screen, could feel the madness of the reporters at the press conference.

"My God, Tony Stark is Iron Man!" Lilith couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaim.

Then as if he suddenly remembered something, he took out his mobile phone and clicked on a securities trading APP, and after swiping to browse, he instantly fell into ecstasy: "Boss, you already knew this news, right?" We've made a lot of money this time! ”

"That's not a good thing to say, otherwise those guys at the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) would have to trouble me for insider trading."

Ron struck mercilessly, "Also, to correct it, it's not 'us', it's me. ”

Although he is not very interested in money, no one dislikes that he has a lot of money.

Now that he knows what is about to happen in the future, he naturally will not let go of this opportunity to make money.

After Tony Stark announced the closure of Stark Industries' weapons production division and the stock price was cut in half, he used the hands of Zeekr to buy nearly $10 billion of Stark Industries' stock.

Glancing apprehensively at the boy on the beach chair, Lilith said weakly, "Actually, I bought quite a few of them myself." ”

Having been the other party's personal secretary for more than two years, she now has more confidence in this small boss than she does in herself.

After learning that the other party was going to buy Stark Industries, Lilith took out all the savings she had saved in the past few years and put it into the stock market to make a big gamble.

As it turned out, she really didn't believe the wrong person.

After the news that Iron Man is Tony Stark is completely fermented, the value of her Stark Industries stock can at least quadruple, making her a millionaire.

Ron didn't care, "It's your job welfare." ”

Pay somebody back in the same coin.

After all, this female secretary usually pays him benefits.

………………

As the overtly helmsman of Zeekr, after the 'accidental' death of Silas, the company inevitably fell into chaos.

After the funeral, it took Ron nearly a week to put down the chaos and establish his authority, even with Alice's help.

During this period, it was not without the company's elders and other directors who bullied him at a young age and were ready to make trouble.

After the two guys who jumped the hardest, one broke his leg in a car accident, and the other was bitten into the hospital by his own golden retriever.

These ambitious fellows completely died down and acquiesced to his position.

After taking full control of the ZEEKR company, Ron promoted Alice to the position of president as soon as possible, and ran back to be the shopkeeper himself.

On this day, Ron was in the laboratory perfecting the last details of his battle suit, but a cold mechanical female voice suddenly sounded in the room.

"General, Mr. Stark would like to ask you for a meeting."

The movement of his hands kept moving, and Ron wondered, "Stark? What's the matter with him looking for me? ”

Although he liked the superhero Iron Man in his previous life, he didn't have much intersection with Tony Stark in this life, and only met a few times at a drinking party.

No way, both of them are the kind of people who are extremely self-centered, and they can't pee in a pot at all.
